Worse experience of my life

Absolutely awful experience! There’s no walking guided tour around, all you do is wait around for around 5 hours of the day just to do not even a full hour of snorkelling. Plus I was sick and not once did the staff check if I was ok and took forever to realise my boyfriend was calling for help so he was struggling trying to get me back to the boat as I was struggling to breathe and being sick. Absolutely no organisation and very rude. Horrific experience. Transportation was also dirty, no working seatbelts and the driver was driving like a maniac and on his phone the majority of the drive

Beautiful experience and taste of mexico

We booked this trip the day before and were picked up in the hotel lobby bang on time, a few more pick ups and then we were dropped at Puerto Morelos, the staff at the snorkelling place were great, spoke to us about the reef and the conservation work. We then showered to remove our sunscreen, none is allowed not even reef friendly!! We got our fins and life jackets as we have our own masks and we’re walked through to the boat. The team were great and we were taken out to reef and followed our guide around the reef. The colours were amazing and so many beautiful fish. The trip was cut a little short by a thunder storm! We decided it was best to get out of the water after a lightning strike. On the way back from the boat we ordered our lunch and went back to get dry and pick up our things, we were treated to some coffee tequila, lovely! Then back to the restaurant the tacos were delicious. We were shown our photos and bought the package they are superb. This was a wonderful trip and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves.

Dear Emma! Thanks for attending this nice tour, visit Puerto Morelos is a special place if you want to explore the nature and the awesome sealife that had. Of course, for take care the reefs is not allowed the use of sunscreen and we appreciate that. It's a pleasure that you had a beatiful experience with us, enjoy your pictures and come back soon to visit the wonderful Riviera Maya. Have a good day and best regards.

had fun

Can not say enough about our Driver Javier- I left my phone in the van and he personally returned it. Snorkeling was excellent and Freida was great. Lunch was good but beware more like a snack and drinks even water is not included. Lots of pressure on the street from vendors.

Operator response
